Dear Vlasta?

(In memoriam of Mrs. Vlasta Vlažná)

You will never read
The lines I write today,
In my memory
Forever you will stay.

From your Czech native land
To Sydney my words non go
Where we in friendship met
So many years ago -

You were a brave, bright star
To Czechs in Sydney town

Your voice brought joy and
hope
And never let us down.

What can I say today

When I look back at time??
I treasure all those moments
That were both yours and
mine.
